Community Partnerships and Collaboration - Finalists COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS AND COLLABORATION - FINALISTS Award Finalists COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS AND COLLABORATION THANKS TO City of Charles Sturt - Open Space, Recreation & Property Team - St Clair Recreation Centre The three year, $28 million jointly funded infrastructure project to rebuild the St Clair Recreation Centre was a collaboration between the Minister for Education, the Department for Planning Transport and Infrastructure and the City of Charles Sturt. The result is a facility for tomorrow - catering for the indoor sporting needs of the western suburbs communities. The involvement of stakeholders and community clubs in the project was significant and the development of relationships fundamental to its success. Strengthening the long term sustainability of recreational facilities in the western region, St Clair Recreation Centre is accessible to the Woodville High School and enabled the amalgamation and relocation of three sporting groups. The project was supported by the State’s 30 Year Plan, the Western Region’s Western Adelaide Sporting Facilities Supply and Demand Study and the City of Charles Sturt Community and Corporate Plan. Collaboration with Government and alignment to key strategic directions enabled the development of significant infrastructure associated with the Centre, which services the western region and some 200,000 residents, through the provision of a six court stadium including roller skating, gymnasium, regional immunisation clinic and sustainable building design.

The first, the repatriation of ancestral remains on Council land represented the first time that a repatriation had occurred on council owned land in South Australia. The second, the truth telling exhibition “Tiati Wangakanthi Kumangka” (Truth Telling Together) is the first of its kind in South Australia, detailing the colonisation of South Australia from an indigenous perspective. Both initiatives were achieved through the strong partnership between the Kaurna community and the City of Holdfast Bay. They are reflective of the social change Councils can implement on state matters and the important role the local government sector can have on broader agendas. Contact: Pamela Jackson General Manager Strategy and Business Services, City of Holdfast Bay 0417 087 684 [email protected] Award Finalists COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS AND COLLABORATION THANKS TO City of Playford - Playford 10 Team Playford 10 connects children (aged 10) from Category 1 schools in Elizabeth into after-school, community based activities such as sports programs, art classes, music activities and volunteer projects, removing the barriers of transport and cost, aiming to improve the children’s personal and social capabilities. The project was designed to create a trusting, fun and engaging environment for children to develop strong, positive role models and mentor relationships, critical factors in a child’s sense of belonging and wellbeing, particularly given their circumstances. The children’s achievements are celebrated in collaboration with stakeholders and families in order to strengthen the social infrastructure of the region. Playford 10 is evidence based (Playford Youth – A New Story 2017), and co-designed with children, parents, teachers and schools, as well as multiple teams within the City of Playford. It is part funded and/or supported by State and Federal Government agencies, the not-for-profit and university sectors and philanthropic organisations. Playford 10 staff collaborate at a strategic level to contribute to policy planning for volunteering, sport and recreation, the arts and music.

  • Alternatives to Amalgamation in Australian Local Government: the Case of Walkerville by Brian Dollery and Joel Byrnes No. 2005-4
    University of New England School of Economics Alternatives to Amalgamation in Australian Local Government: The Case of Walkerville by Brian Dollery and Joel Byrnes No. 2005-4 Working Paper Series in Economics ISSN 1442 2980 http://www.une.edu.au/febl/EconStud/wps.htm Copyright © 2005 by UNE. All rights reserved. Readers may make verbatim copies of this document for non-commercial purposes by any means, provided this copyright notice appears on all such copies. ISBN 1 86389 9502 Alternatives to Amalgamation in Australian Local Government: The Case of Walkerville∗ Brian Dollery and Joel Byrnes∗∗ Abstract Structural reform chiefly through of council amalgamation has long been the most favoured means of enhancing municipal efficiency by Australian state government policy makers. However, the disappointing results of most amalgamation programs have led to a growing scepticism in the local government community and a search for alternative methods of improving council efficiency. Not only have scholars designed generic models suitable for Australian conditions, but individual councils and groups of councils around the country have also developed several de facto alternatives to amalgamation. An embryonic body of research has now begun to examine the efficacy of these alternative organizational arrangements. The present paper seeks to augment this nascent literature evaluating the outcomes achieved by Walkerville; an Adelaide suburban council that escaped the South Australian merger program completed in 1998. Key Words: Amalgamation; Regional Co-operative Agreement (RCA); Walkerville ∗ The authors would like to thank the Town of Walkerville Mayor John Rich and senior management for their kind assistance and co-operation in bringing this paper to fruition.

Despite this, many of our urban environments are not conducive to walking or cycling. Getting around the City of Playford on foot or bike can be a challenge. Like many parts of Australia, the City of Playford has been planned and designed predominantly for motor vehicle transport. The car-dominant environment and focus on infrastructure and budgets supporting this mode of transport makes the simple task of getting from place to place difficult for those who do not have a car, or who wish to travel by other modes.
